Metabolism of Progesterone in Human Myometrium [PDF]
Endocrinology, 1969 In vitro incubation experiments with human myometrium collected during the proliferative phase of the ovarian cycle demonstrate progesterone-4-14C to be metabolized to 5 products, namely, pregn-4-en-20α-ol-3-one, 5α-pregnan-3,20-dione, pregn-4-en,6β-ol-3,20-dione, 5α-pregnan-20α-ol-3-one, and an unidentified product. The rate of progesterone metabolism

Difference in expression between AQP1 and AQP5 in porcine endometrium and myometrium in response to steroid hormones, oxytocin, arachidonic acid, forskolin and cAMP during the mid-luteal phase of the estrous cycle and luteolysis [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Recently, we demonstrated in vitro that AQP1 and AQP5 in the porcine uterus are regulated by steroid hormones (P4, E2), arachidonic acid (AA), forskolin (FSK) and cAMP during the estrous cycle.
